The argument of republican politicians
has the invariable refrain that the "con-
federacy is in the saddle" With this fact
in mind it is little interesting to know
that of the - judges of federal courts
appointed by republicans, 7 were men
who had been in the service of the con-
federacy. Per contra, the appointments
made by the democratic administration
are as follows: In the diplomatic and
consulor service there are 233 from north
ern states and 106 from southern states.
OF the positions abroad which bring
$4,000 per annum or more, are filed
by northern men and from people in
the southern states, and only of these
werei in the confederate service, and of the
whole JOG, only 81 were In the service of
the coniederacy.

THOSE papers which are urging the
nomination of Robert Lincoln by the re-
publican party, have no reason to be
ashamed of their candidate. 1t is doubt
less true that Lincoln owes his promi-
hence very largely to his father, but it is
equally true that he has the ability and
good sense to sustain himself creditably
in any position. Most young men having
the honors thrust upon them which have
fallen to Robert Lincoln, would be so
badly spoiled as to be absolutely worth
less. Not so with him. The honors he
has enjoyed have not diverted him a whit
from his purpose to plod on relying sole
ly upon his own merit. Robert reflects
credit upon his father.

GERMANY is in danger of being wholly
shorn of its great men and left without
any competent person to succeed them.
The Emperor and General Won Moltke
have long since passed the allotted span
of life and Bismarck has reached it. The
health of the crown prince is in precar-
ious condition. There are no men trained
to take the places of these giants. The
son of the crown prince has passion for
military life but has no capacity for civil
affairs. General Boulanger of France has
noticed these things and doubtless in
tends to profit by them. Germany's
weakness would not be allowed to pass
unimproved by France.

JUDGING from the arguments used by
the protection newspapers the people of
the United States are the most helpless
class of people in the world, relying sole
ly upon legislation to make a living
Remove protective legislation and every
manufacturer in the land would be driv-
en- to the wall, forced out of business, in
fact compelled to quit the country
What a dreadful predicament to be in!
What miserable country in which to
settle where the means of existence come
only through acts of cangress! And the
free traders are anxious to bring about
this terrible disaster.

The late corner in wheat which col
lapsed on Monday was one of the greatest
deals in wheat manipulation and the re-
suit will make spectators little chary
in future. The spectators succeeded in
and blocked the railroads. There were
S100,000,0O0 tied up in the deal and the
spectators had 16,000,0o0 bushels of
wheat in Chicago. But the wheat grow
ing region has become too extensive for
a corner such as has been engineered for
some time in Chicago. The collapse has
brought ruin to many, but it has prob
ably ended gambling in wheat on scaia
as extensive as was here attempted.

WHEN General" futile reached home
at Des Moines, he was greeted by the G..
4. r. members of that city, who organic
ed and passed resolutions of condemna-
ton on Cleveland and of approval Of
General Tuttle's course in announcing
that members of the G. A. r. would in
suit Cleveland should he dare to put in
an appearance in st. Louis during the en-
campment. Then it was resolved that the
grand army is not political organization.
OF course that resolution removes al
doubt. But why was it thought neces-
sary to pass it? 1t appears like protest
ing too much.

THE Sentinel ciiticises the bourbon
organ" The ST. Louis Republican, for
saying the republican senate has failed to
pass bill to reduce the surplus, by an
nouncing that the senate has no power to
originate legislation relating to revenue.
This may well be doubted. The consti-
tuition gives the house the sole power of
originating bills for raising revenue
The power exercised by congress to pro-
tect home industries has its authority In
another provision of the constitution
The senate may not have ever assumed
to exercise the power to originate bill
reducing revenue, or rather to relieve the
people of a tax imposed for the benefits
of home monopolies, not to furnish
revenue for the government. But there
is no inhibition, in the view taken by
protectionists, in the constitution upon
the senate to originate protective legisla-
ton.
But it is proper enough to hold the
democratic party responsible for the fail
ure to reduce the tariff. The Randall
faction is not democratic on questions of
vital interest to the democratic party
The democratic party is without major
ity in the present house as a matter of
| fact. The Randall gang has succeeded
in foisting upon the party a temporizing
line of policy on the tariff question so far
| as public utterances are concerned, and
| in legislation, q record which is ultra
| republican. What is gained by dluting
democratic platforms so as to hold Ran
| dali in ostensible allegiance, only to be
made victim OF his treachery when as
! sistance is needed? Has milk and water
| policy on the tariff gained the party any
| advantage in Pennsylvania or Ohio? Has
it strengthened the party in these states
which demand a clearly defined issue be-
| tween free trade and protection and which
are pronounced for free trade? 1t has
simply admitted to the counsels of the
party, men who are not in harmony with
| its principles and who are ever giving aid
and comfort to its enemies. This is cow
ardly, impohtic and weak, and has made
the party and its professions the butt of
ridicule and the scape-gOat of republican
offenses. Drive the Randall faction out
and let the republican party for which it
acts, bear It's sins. Let their constituents
know them as republicans and the demo
Gratis may make some gains Now we
have a house of representatives demo
cratic III name, republican in fact. Let
Randall cease masquerading in demo,
cratic costume and we will at least know
what to depend upon.

The Grand Army kick against Cleve-
land is more serious than was at first be-
heved. Every post seems to be protest
ing against his coming to st. Louis on
the occasion of the national encampment.
1t is the most silly proceeding that ever
body Of sane men was guilty of. The
protests are the hight of absurdity and
show how sadly these men have been
spoiled by years of flattery.
In striking contrast with the action of
the posts is a letter from General Sher-
man, full of sympathy for the old soldiers
and fatherly in its remonstrance against
the capers being cut up by the Grand
Army. He says he hopes the President
will be present and that it is monstrous
for the grand army men to talk of insult
ing him should he be there. He himself
will stand by his side or march past in
the ranks as Gen. Fairchild may dictate.
He states that it pains him to find that
the question of veto is mixed up in this
matter, and says on this matter that had
he been near the President he would have
said that charity enters largely into
pensions and private pension bills should
be approved. But on the general bill to
exercise the full constitutional power"
What will be thought of Sherman now?
Won't he be ranked as a rebel together
with little Bragg by the pension heroes?

OLD General Sherman has no political
bee in his bonnet and he is not trying to
make the Grand Army a political machine
like some of the ant Generals who are
delivering political speeches for their own
selfish purposes. If the Grand Army
would take counsel from such men as
Sherman who have the good of the organ
ization at heart and discard the Turtles
and Fairchilds it would enjoy the respect
of the country and be capable of doing
much good. Persistence in its present
| course will be ruinous to its influence.
